I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Dallas, TX) in Dec 2009
Interview
Applied online, and my background was a perfect fit for what they needed in the Operations Practice. I had a phone interview for the first round, and then 4 more rounds of interviews over 2 months. The timing was long and drawn out, but the interviews and interviewers were great, and I enjoyed each round. It was worth it when I got the offer!
